NASA Keeps Telling "Warmest" Lies

By Alan
Caruba

On January
16 The New York Times reported the lies NASA keeps telling about global warming
with an article titled “2014 Breaks Heat Record, Challenging Global Warming
Skeptics.”We have reached the point
where neither a famed government agency nor a famed daily newspaper can be
believed simply because both are lying to advance the greatest hoax of the
modern era.

Remember
that 2014 started off with something called a “polar vortex” to describe the
incredibly cold weather being experienced and remember, too, that we were being
told that it was evidence of global warming! That’s how stupid the “Warmists”
who keep saying such things think we are.

The Earth
is in the 19th year of a natural cooling cycle based on the reduced
radiation of the Sun which is in its own natural cycle. It hasn’t been getting
warmer and most people who give it any thought at all know the truth of that.

Enough
people have concluded this that, according to a recent CNN poll, more than
half, 57%, say that global warming is not a global threat. In addition, the
poll revealed that only 50% of Americans believe the alleged global warming is not caused by man-made emissions, while
23% believe it is the result of natural changes, and 26% believe global warming
is not a proven fact.

That’s
progress. No youngster under the age of 19 has ever experienced a single day of
global warming. No computer model that ever predicted it has been accurate.
Neither the Pope nor the President, nor any other world leader who repeats the
global warming claim is correct.

The latest
claim came from NASA and, as I continue to remind readers, it is a government
agency whose budget depends on parroting the lies the President keeps telling
about global warming.

Astrophysicist,
Dr. David Whitehouse, said “The NASA press release is highly misleading…talk of
a record is scientifically and statistically meaningless.”He was joined by climatologist Dr. Roy
Spencer who said “We are arguing over the significance of hundredths of a
degree.”

Do you
believe that a hundredth of a degree makes a difference? Well, it does if you
are a government agency desperately trying to keep the global warming hoax
alive. Climatologist Dr. Pat Michaels asked “Is 58.46 degrees distinguishable
from 58.45 degrees? In a word, NO.”

Marc
Morano, the editor of CFACT’s ClimateDepot.com, said, “There are dueling global
datasets—surface temperature records and satellite records—and they disagree.
The satellites show an 18 year-plus global warming standstill and the satellite
was set up to be ‘more accurate’ than the surface records.” As for the NASA
claim, Morano dismissed it as “simply a political statement not based on
temperature gauges.” Morano, a former member of the staff of the U.S. Senate
Environmental & Public Works Committee, is working on an upcoming
documentary “Climate Hustle.”

How does
this affect you? The lie that carbon dioxide and methane emissions, dubbed
“greenhouse gases”, are causing global warming is the basis for the Obama
administration’s attack on the nation’s energy sector and, in particular, the
provision of electricity by coal-fired plants. In the past six years many of
these plants have been shut down or will be. The result is less electricity and
higher prices for electricity. The other result is an attack on the oil and natural
gas industry that drill to access these resources.There is not a scintilla of truth to justify
what is being done to Americans in the name of global warming.

There is
yet another result and that is the loss of jobs in the energy sector and the
reduction in revenue to the nation and states it represents. The nation’s
economy overall has been in sluggish state which the word “growth” doesn’t even
begin to describe. That hurts everyone.

Most of us
don’t have a lot of time to get up to speed and stay there regarding the facts
surrounding global warming or climate change. An excellent source of
information is the Environment &
Climate News, a monthly publication by The Heartland Institute, a thirty
year old non-profit free market think tank that will sponsor its tenth annual
International Conference on Climate Change in Washington, D.C. in June.

NASA has
been allowed to degrade to the point where the agency that sent men to the Moon
no longer has the capacity to even transport them to the International Space Station
built by the Russians. We have gone from the world’s leader in space
exploration to an agency that has been turned into a propaganda machine
asserting that a hundredth of a degree “proves” that global warming is
happening.

The U.S.
and the rest of the world are setting records, but they are records for how
cold it has become everywhere. There was snow recently in Saudi Arabia from a
storm that swept across Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, Israel,
and Jordan. Does that sound like global warming to you? For an excellent source
of information on the cooling of the planet, visit http://iceagenow.info.

You
have an obligation to yourself, your family, friends and co-workers to not just
know the truth but to denounce entities like NASA, the EPA, and The New York
Times, Time, Newsweek, National Geographic, and others that keep repeating the
lies about global warming.

According to Bjarne Andresen, a professor at The Niels Bohr Institute, University of Copenhagen, the concept of global average temperature is thermodynamically, as well as mathematically, an impossibility (Researchers Question Validity Of A 'Global Temperature' - Science Daily - 18 March 2007):

"It is impossible to talk about a single temperature for something as complicated as the climate of Earth.

A temperature can be defined only for a homogeneous system. Furthermore, the climate is not governed by a single temperature. Rather, differences of temperatures drive the processes and create the storms, sea currents, thunder, etc. which make up the climate.

While it is possible to treat temperature statistically locally, it is meaningless to talk about a global temperature for Earth. The globe consists of a huge number of components which one cannot just add up and average. That would correspond to calculating the average phone number in the phone book. That is meaningless. Or talking about economics, it does make sense to compare the currency exchange rate of two countries, whereas there is no point in talking about an average 'global exchange rate'.

If temperature decreases at one point and it increases at another, the average will remain the same as before, but it will give rise to an entirely different thermodynamics and thus a different climate. If, for example, it is 10 degrees at one point and 40 degrees at another, the average is 25 degrees. But if instead there is 25 degrees both places, the average is still 25 degrees. These two cases would give rise to two entirely different types of climate, because in the former case one would have pressure differences and strong winds, while in the latter there would be no wind."
